Region |
A topographic location. Regions encompass surfaces of Objects, imaginary places, and GeographicAreas. Note that a Region is the only kind of Object which can be located at itself. Note too that Region is not a subclass of SelfConnectedObject, because some Regions, e.g. archipelagos, have parts which are not connected with one another.

| LevantRegion | LevantRegion is the subregion that borders the Eastern Mediterranean sea to the west, and forms the core of West Asia and the political term, Middle East. In its narrowest sense, which is in use today in archaeology and other cultural contexts, it is equivalent to Cyprus and a stretch of land bordering the Mediterranean Sea in Western Asia that is, the historical region of Syria (Greater Syria), which includes present-day Syria, as well as Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine, Israel, and the southern part of Cilicia (modern-day Turkey). Its overwhelming characteristic is that it represents the land bridge between Africa and Eurasia.[Wikipedia] |

| NorthPole | The NorthPole is the point in the Northern Hemisphere where the Earth's axis of rotation meets its surface.The North Pole is by definition the northernmost point on the Earth, lying antipodally to the South Pole. It defines geodetic latitude 90° North, as well as the direction of true north. At the North Pole all directions point south; all lines of longitude converge there, so its longitude can be defined as any degree value. No time zone has been assigned to the North Pole, so any time can be used as the local time. Along tight latitude circles, counterclockwise is east and clockwise is west. The North Pole is at the center of the Northern Hemisphere. [Wikipedia] |

| NullIsland | NullIsland Null Island is the location at zero degrees latitude and zero degrees longitude (0°N 0°E), i.e., where the prime meridian and the equator intersect. Since there is no landmass located at these coordinates, it is not an actual island. The name is often used in mapping software as a placeholder to help find and correct database entries that have erroneously been assigned the coordinates 0,0. The point on the Earth's surface defined as Null Island is located in international waters in the Atlantic Ocean, roughly 600 kilometres (320 nmi) off the coast of West Africa, in the Gulf of Guinea. A weather buoy, named the Soul buoy after the soul music genre, was moored at the location.[Wikipedia] |

Note that SeaLevel represents a GeographicArea that comprises all the local Mean Sea Level (MSL) areas used as references for measuring altitude. In fact, there are local variations in MSL, due to tides and long- and short- term weather conditions. |
